Sheltered parking, no shade
1 A31, DT11 9EX, Blandford Forum
Been here?
This is a secluded overnight parking area behind a petrol station, with no restrictions and a level, sheltered position behind the garage. It is generally very peaceful, with limited road noise, though there may be slight traffic noise and early staff arrivals. The area has no shade, which can make it uncomfortable in hot weather such as 38 degrees in the sun.

Fully intended to stay here for a night as its a great location directly behind the garage and far enough off the road to hear limited road noise. Only we moved on as it offers no shade, and on this particular day it was 38 degrees in the sun.
No restrictions, the Leon restaurant it backs onto is now closed so only used for garage staff parking. One car arrived at 0430 and a few more at 0730 so very peaceful. Tiny bit of road noise and a lovely sunrise.
Overnight stopover on the way to Poole.
